It gets repetative and most characters are basically the same. The second is an alternate version of the first story in which you play as Jiraiya, Tsunade, Shizune, and Kakashi. The game is a must-have for Naruto fans, period; but if you are looking for a great game overall you might get bored with this. This was a good game. So buy it.or don't. It has the same features as the last game (except no increasing of specific character abilities) plus two adventure modes. It added onto the previous game in the series by increasing the playable character count. The first is a new story made exclusively for the PSP game and revolves around Naruto and the other genin.
Overall, I would rent it for some fun or buy it used, I don't think its worth paying $40 for a new one. The actual fighting wasn't too bad, very simple, but it was kind of lame that all of the moves and special moves for all of the characters are all the same button combo. Its fun, and keeps you entertained for about 20-30 hours of gameplay if you play conservatively(can get infinite hours of use is you have a buddy with a psp). But i was disappointed with the way the game was setup, like the menu system, and the way characters are unlocked.
The amount of playable characters in the v.s. The story mode of this game provides for an exciting plot and also some surprising turns; it's only down side is that it is a bit repetitive. mode is also an excellent addition to the game. After first hearing of the release of this game, I was pretty anxious to get my hands on it. Once I did get it, I'm pleased to say, I found it very entertaining.
Everyone else will feel like they did all this before. If you missed the first game, you can't go wrong buying this one. A slight improvement over the first Naruto PSP offering, The Phantom Fortress still plays the same while not really pushing the fighting series to exciting new heights. There is still much fun to be had in this game and the Mugenjo story mode is a major plus.
I highly recommend this game. This game is longer than God of War so it keeps you busy, even though the mini games do get a little repetitive after a while. I actually wonder why I waited so long to buy one.
Some of the games are pretty difficult, The tree climbing is extremely hard to get an A, but the other mini games are fun. Throw the third Hokage into that mix as well. I find that the storyline in this Naruto game is actually pretty intriguing and plays out like a Naruto anime episode or even a movie.
I love the controls and the PSP graphics are excellent. Its a lot of fun. The characters and their upgrades like demon wind shurikens and poison bombs are useful in battle and everyone seems to have their signature ultimate jutsu and one or two other surprises.
The only complaint that I have is the use of Kisame and Itachi, too brief and a little cheesy.
